“Absolutely love this print! The Italian coast image is beautiful, and the framing turned out perfectly. It is such a great addition to our home.”
Hi, I’m Maxine!
Laden’s Co-Founder, and first featured artist
My love for film started long before I ever imagined selling prints. The first camera I ever used was a Canon AE-1. In my sophomore year of high school, I took a film class where we would take photos, unroll the film, and develop our photos in a darkroom. I ended up getting a solid C- in that class, but I was inspired.
Years later, I started my own photography business with a $75 camera I purchased off Facebook Marketplace, and I was on my way. Six years later, I have a booming photography business, having worked with over 300 clients, photographed 50+ weddings, and collaborated with brands like Free People, Lululemon, Guinness, Solidcore, Ghirardelli, and more.
Throughout my travels, I’ve always brought my film camera with me, capturing photographs across the United States, Italy, France, and beyond. For years, these images have lived in my archives, and now they’re ready to make their way into your home, office, or business.
